CLEARFIELD, PA., MAY 13, 1857.
Temperance Meetiso. The Wasbintoni.ms
will hold their quarterly mcctitig, on Monday
the 18th day of May, in the Court House, lit
early candle light. The people are kindly in
vited to attend. G. Thilipp Guelicu,
May 13, 1867. President.
Scalded. A small child of Mr. Thomas
Robins, of this place, had Its legs and feet
scalded, on last Saturday, by precipitating a
tea-kettle of boiling water over itself. It Is
convalescent .
Charles D. Watso:, Esq., the new Tost
Master at Clearfield Borough, entered upon the
duties of his appointment on last Saturday.
The office is kept in the same room which Mr.
Watson occupies as a Drug Store.
Cct his IIead. Whilst a lad of Mr. Andrew
Shugarf, of this borough, was cutting with an
axe, on last Wednesday, a younger brother
came too clone, arid the descending axe cut a
largo gash in the top of his head.
TnE First of the Season. Wm. F. Irwin,
hasjnst relumed from tie city with a large and
well selected stock ol Seasonable Goods.which
lie is opening out at his store room in Clear
Held Borough, and will dispose of at the most
reasonable prices. See Advertisement.
A bill fixing the fees of tho District Attor
ney in Clearfield, and a number of other coun
ties, at $6 in cases tried, and $3 where bills
are ignored or a nolle prosequi entered, passed
both branches of our Legislature and has been
signed by the Governer.
Local News. We would be obliged if any
ol our friends in different sections of tho coun
ty would furnish us with . occurrences that
would be of interest to our readers. Ministers
and Justices would also confer a favor by sen
ding marriage or death notices.
Fire i.f the Woods. We understand that
fires have broken out in the woods in differ
ent sections of the country, ard are destroying
timber, &c. On last Sunday, a fire broke out
on the bill East of town, but we believe
no other particular damage was done than to
burn several cords of wood for (Jen. A. M.
Hills, which was stacked up in a clearing.
We direct the attention of persons desirous
of procuring Marble Work of any description,
to the advertisement of Messrs. S. A. Gibson
& Co-., of Bellefonte, in another column of to
day's Journal.
Attention is also called to the advertisement
of Geo. W. Orr, who has re-commenced the
blacksmithing business at the. old shop, on
Third street, Clearfield borough.
Mo.net Wanted. We would remind such of
our patrons as are in arrears, that we, like ev
erybody else, are in need of money, and would,
therefore, respectfully, yet earnestly, urge
them to give us a call as soon as convenient,
or remit to us by mail. The ensuing Court
week will give many an opportunity of attend
ing to this matter. So, roll in, gentlemen
we shall be happy to sec you, at any time.
Bodt Found. La.st Wednesday the body of
a man was drifted out on some brush some
where in liie neighborhood of Moore's, in Clin
ton county, which has been identified as that
of Mr. James Flannegan, of this place, who
was drowned at the "Big Pitch," on Easter
Suud.iy. The body, we believe, was interred
at the place where it was found. Moore's is
about 36 miles from the place where Mr. Flau
negm was drewned.
Rafting. During last week, nearly, if rot
quite all, the timber, lumber and spar rafts
from Cherry-tree, Chest creek, &c, passed
this point on their way to market. We sup
pose that a great portion of the rafts in Clear
field creek, and other tributaiies of the West
Branch, also passed down, and in a short time
we may expect to see some money afloat in
Clearfield, and times easier than they have
been for sonic months.
Something Sensible. The following item
f sensible advice is taken from HalTs Jour
nal of Health, and we think it not out of place
to insert it, as it is peculiarly applicable to
this region : "Dress children warmly, woolen
flannel next their person during tho whole
year. By every consideration protect the ex
tremities well. It is an ignorant barbarism
that allows a child to have bare arms, and legs,
and feet, even in summer." The circulation
should bo invited to the extremities j warmth
does that ; cold repels it. It is at the bands
and feet we begin to die. Those who have
cold handi and feet arc never well. Plenty of
warmtli, plenty of substantial food and ripe
fruits, and plenty of joyous out-door exercise,
would save millions of children annually."
A Fair Hit. Mr. Choate writes a hand
which has been compared to the autograph of
a seventeen legged spider, just crawled out of
an inkstand. An exchange says : "We are
informed that non. Rnfus Choate will be sent
to China not, however, by the government as
Minister Plenipotentiary, but that he has
been engaged at a large salary to go out to
Canton, where he will bo employed in lettering
tea-chests ! Jt is said that his peculiar style of
chirography will enable him to put on those
interesting hieroglyphics at a much cheaper
rate than the Chinese painters can do it."
The Highest Watehfall in the world is
n the Sandwich Islands, and is stated to be
between four and five thousand feet high.
The stream on which the fall occurs, runs a
mong the peaks or tho highest mountains in
the islands. It falls sheer from a precipice so
high that the water actually never reaches the
bottom. The resistance of the air changes it
into mist before it can reach the bottom," so
great is the distance, and ascends to the clouds
again. This must be a sight to see a small
cataract literally suspended in mid air. Eith
er that is a big waterfall, or a big story.

lying in a critical condition at Buehler's Ho

the "National epidemic," and bis recovery is
considered doubtful.
C7""An exchange asks very innocently if it
is any harm for young ladies to sit in the lapse
of ages.' Our opinion is that it all depends
on the kind of ages selected. Those from 18
to 2-, we think are somewhat hazardous, but
are generally preferred by femininity.
E7"A pocket-book containing 0,000 in

C7The Persian Ambassador at Paris, Fc-rouck-Rhan,
has just presented to Louis Na
poleon four Arab horses of the purest blood,
from his master, the Shah. Their peculiari
ties are two that they aro larger than any
blood horses hitherto seen, and that they have
no manes. Paris was very much delighted
with the beauty of these animals.
C7Thc direct intelligence from Walker is
to the 13th of April, by way of the lake and
river. A dispatch came to Grcytown of that
date from Gen. Mora, stating that he had got
Walker and his whole force confined to only
two houses that he had dug a trench all a
round what was left of tho city, and that Walk
er would be forced to surrender by the 20th.
rJ"Thc Louisiana sugar crop was not mate
rially damaged by the recent frosts, though
advantage was taken of the fact to advance
the price of sugars. At first a material cur
tailment of the crop was predicted. No doubt
the young cane was severely bitten, but as a
general rule it promises to regain its vigor,
or at least to a fair proportion of saccharine
juice-
L7"Thc Chinese Sugar Cane About 250
bushels of the seed of this cane have been dis
tributed by tho Patent Office this season. It
is thought by many that this cone is destined
to be cultivated as extensively in the United
States as Indian corn, yielding, as it does at
the same time, sugat for man, and provender
and grain for beast.
OyFreemasonry was first known in Eng
land, in 674, and was forbidden in 1424 ; toler
ated in 1G00, and excommunicated by the
pope in 1CS8. The Charity for Freemasons
was established in 1788. The Grand Lodge of
England was founded in 1727 ; of Ireland, in
1720. Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen street,
was built in 1775, and opened in May, 1770.
E7A fellow in North Carolina, having been
put in jail for marrying thirteen wives, recent
ly made his escape. A gentleman afterwards
recognized him, and anxious to secure the re
ward for his apprehension, invited him to din
ner, and then slyly, slipped out in pursuit of a
constable ; but.great was his surprise on his re
turn to find that the culprit had absconded
with his own wife. So says an exchange.
B""""-Thc proposed Convention at Lancaster
is to be held on the 5th June, instead of the
20th May, as at first announced. It will no
doubt be a great affair, some half dozen Loco'
focos, wearing the American livery, managing
and controlling it. It was rumored last week
that arrangements were being made by leading
Democrats at Harrisburg and tho sidc-doorites
to run Gov. Geary as a third candidate, but we
can see no confirmation of the rumor.
